We were so grateful to have an English speaking guide to help us really understand and get around the major temples and the Grand Palace in Bangkok. We learned a lot and didn't have to waste time trying to figure out how to get there, the ferries or tickets to each attraction. Everything was taken care of and we got to see and do a lot more. Our guide (Vichney, I think, was his name) was really nice and happily answered all of our questions, took photos of us and helped us to participate in some of the blessings and rituals at the temples. The pick up was smooth and on-time and they even dropped us off at another location afterwards (at our request) so we could get lunch and further exploring after our tour. Highly recommend!jacobz974
